Cannot access my profile
« on: August 11, 2012, 11:16:13 AM »
Hi,

I have this error when trying to access my profile:

Call to Inusertemp failed (temporary directory full??). Check your installation.

This is the first time i see that so what can i do to go back to my profile?

Thanks for your time :)

Hi OD,

Two things may be relevant.

1. Full disk? Type >df into a terminal for a quick check

2. Wrong permissions on your /tmp directorty, in konsole type >ls -al

Could use dolphin to change permissions and maybe Bleachbit user version if it is a space issue.



ps If all the permissions in your user account are wrong:

#chown -R ordidoc:ordidoc /home/ordidoc (need to be root)

The program lnusertemp (not Inusertemp) is run every time you start KDE. It creates three symbolic links in your .kde4 directory if they don't exist:

~/.kde4/socket-localhost.localdomain pointing to ~/tmp/ksocket-<yourname>
~/.kde4/tmp-localhost.localdomain pointing to ~/tmp/kde-<yourname>
~/.kde4/cache-localhost.localdomain pointing to /var/tmp/kdecache-<yourname>

"~" stands for "/home/<yourname>", and in some setups "localhost.localdomain" might be just "localhost".

The most likely reason for your error message is that either your ~/tmp or your /tmp directory really is full, which could mean that you are running out of space in /home or in your root directory. Try emptying both /tmp and ~/tmp. That may not be enough though: you may have to remove a number of larger files too.

But the reason for the error message could also be that there is something wrong with your existing links or their targets.

So if emptying your tmp directories and freeing up some space in /home or / doesn't help, remove the three links (~/.kde4/socket-localhost.localdomain, ~/.kde4/tmp-localhost.localdomain and ~/.kde4/cache-localhost.localdomain) - and log out. They will be recreated when you log in again.

But the first thing you should do is the first thing Phil told you to do. Type df in a terminal. That will tell you whether your partitions are full or not.

Thanks for the replies.

I decided to reinstall Full Monty finally but even that is giving me problems so i'll see what is happening and post whatever problems/solutions i may have.
